What are you even talking about

What a childish take.

Young adults needs stronger world frameworks that don’t feel forced on them.

IMO that’s a virtue system!

I’ve been a Stoic for over 20 years now and managed to convert dozens of people to progressive thought just by discussing virtues that are inherit to human nature (justice, courage, wisdom, temperance). People like abstract virtues because they’re easy to incorporate to their personal world models with very little friction and friction is the real thought killer.

Most people are truth seeking but can be very slow learners and some really rebel against strong friction so there’s a need for more abstract approaches like - using “colorblind” instead of arguing race, using “cosmopolitan” when argueing geopolitics, using “secular” when arguing religion etc etc. Every other argument can follow afterwards.

This is the way.

The world is not America - so how come this is an issue in other places?

This white guilt argument just doesn’t hold up to any scrutiny and is just nazi propaganda. Let’s be honest here.

If you told me that I’d be cheering for space rockets exploding 10 years ago I would have called you crazy. Incredible how much damage that fiend has done to our society.

I wonder whether Meta will try to lock down cross platform access now.

Currently Beeper still works everywhere and EU’S DMA (Digital Markets Act) still has WhatsApp as gate keeper which is required to interpolate with other chat apps. However “WhatsApp stories” are entirely different from chat so that means they can block all of that and this is probably how Meta will approach future WhatsApp updates - more shit to lock people in WhatsApp that isnt directly chat related because thats the only way to show people ads.

Everything after the # character in the URL is called an anchor and it’s not actually being sent to the website server so it’s meant for your browser (though the server can see it using javascript). The anchor can point to any ID in the HTML of the web page and browser will scroll it into view on page load. You can find the ID of any element using right click -> inspect though not all elements have explicit ids.

Not even remotely the same thing. More apt comparison would be Iranian government or Putin or do you forget that Hamas brutally ruled Gaza for years?

I’m sorry but that’s just idiotic. Gazans were terrorized by Hamas for years themselves. They’re not freedom fighters no matter how you look at it.

Would you say Putin is a freedom fighter?

What really triggers me is that digital products that are significantly cheaper, easier and safer (environment etc) than physical counterparts have significantly worse rights and protections.

Even if I agreed with the idea of copyright the economical implementation is so absurd.

Look at you admitting that you are circumventing bans with new accounts. I don’t get why are you angry tho, you can disagree with me without all this shit you know.

What? What’s even the point of these replies if you just spam me in bad faith. Go write a diary or something if you’re looking for an outlet

Sorry I don’t follow. How is that relevant to my comment?

Same when people started calling Hamas “freedom fighters”.

I refuse to believe these people are really tbh. Or they’re just mentally deranged vocal minority

Yeah isn’t that crazy?

Copyright by itself only protects distribution but then laws like DMCA (US) and EUCA (EU) make drm removal illegal. Its hard to believe that these laws exist and should be opposed at every possible opportunity.

Can you imagine buying an ebook and being told you can’t remove malware from some strings of text or you’ll go to prison? Also you have no consumer protections like refunds or ability to pass down the license so you’re literally have worse consumer rights than a physical product and digital data costs nothing!

The current copyright framework is so broken and so toxic it needs to be completely destroyed.

We must be going to different ones because there’s loads of down-time in most games and people would have a smoke break and just hang out with food and drinks post games.

Board game cafes is my 1st choice for social connections when arriving to a new country and I make friends every time. Never failed me once.

Board game groups and board game cafes are great for that!

everything is open source except half of all things.

Lol

Because task starting is legit hard and I don’t think it needs some mystical explanation. The way to adress this is to break it town to small tasks and start at it. When I start my remote software engineers work day I start with a checklist to what I want to do - thats already first tiny task that sets me into work mood. Then make the first points easy loke “check email x”, “check website Y” etc.

It’s important to be descriptive with your tasks and just don’t write “check all emails” because those are demotivating and tiring just looking at it. Use multiple points of “check customer X emails”, “check email replies”.

Ive been working remotely for over 20 years so I’m very familiar with this issue and this tip is the best one I can give!
